Austria will host one of the world’s largest conferences for sustainable urban development, with 1,500 delegates from 50 countries expected to attend the two-day event.

Austria will take its place at the heart of international information exchange on 2–3 March 2016 at the URBAN FUTURE Global Conference , one of the world’s largest information hubs for sustainable urban development. One of the conference’s central goals is to establish connections between major players from the worlds of commerce, politics, science and research, making the event in Graz an unmissable occasion for developers, companies and decision-makers alike.

Experts from all over the world can look forward to swapping tips on best practices and projects at 40 sessions and in-depth discussions, tackling the key topics of mobility, living and city planning, communication and resources. Delegates from more than 300 cities will also be developing new methods of improving the quality of life in metropolitan and urban spaces. ADVANTAGE AUSTRIA will make its own contribution with a presentation to the ‘Exploiting business opportunities – Europe’s smart city trends’ discussion panel, reporting on trends and commercial opportunities in the urban technologies sector and showcasing cutting-edge Austrian innovations for smart cities.

The delegates attending the URBAN FUTURE Global Conference are amongst the world’s most innovative designers and decision-makers – the ideal target demographic for new business opportunities. In addition to the URBAN FUTURE Global Conference, companies, cities, scientific institutions and organisations will be presenting their innovations, projects and future trends in the smart city sector at the Urban Future Expo trade fair.
